SLC officials have said they will be giving their full support to the anti-corruption team in its investigation. Gunasekara noted that the misappropriation amounted to over $187,000 (Rs 1.37 crore).

"Sony became suspicious when this suspect informed it (of the requirement) for a deposit of 50 percent of television rights fees from an ongoing England tour and it informed Sri Lanka cricket".
